Mr. Happy, you are absolutely correct. Myself and "just facts" don't know. Sometimes it is the "not knowing" that sparks your interest in a situation. It does stink. Thanks for setting us straight. Have a nice day yourself.

Facts said, "They have the right to keep it confidential rather than ruin reputations."

Boy, I know people in this town that would give their eye tooth for THAT right...I guess the rest of us have to be responsible for our actions and let our reputations suffer. Not too long ago, I heard some Catholic Bishop saying that same thing though, so you're probably right.

I am just stunned that everyone is taking Ricky Tow and Gene Brown at their word and not questioning them more. ALL city employees should be concerned for their jobs, especially police officers. If they terminate a department head without giving him any proof of any complaint(s), then they can do it to anyone else if you continue to allow them to operate this way. All Bowie Police Dept. officers should look up Government Code 614.021 - 614.023 and then ask your fearless leader why the City of Bowie doesn't follow the law? You could be next!

Guy Green knows the wrong that has been done and yet he sits on his ill gotten throne and allows it to continue - sooooo sad the bubble he lives in.

Therefore repent and turn back, that your sins may be wiped out so that season of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord - Acts 3:19 Scruggs knows exactly what he did, until he repents and tells his family the truth, I can't imagine what turmoil he must be going through. I pray for Scruggs, but especially the people involved needlessly because of one man's sin. What a tremendous ripple affect this has had!! So sad......

Just The Facts, It is our business.we are the ones who pay the money out for these employees.The Bowie gossip train is sating facts not Gossip.You need to be educated on this Topic my Dear! Yes there is no doubt of his guilt. But it should NOT be swept under the rug.

<quoted text>There might be "no doubt", but that would be in the mind of the city manager. Last time I checked, he was just an imperfect man, and not infallible. You speak as if you know the truth, but you don't. However, when you state "no doubt of guilt" you are actually implying the old police chief was guilty of something when you really don't know. Neither you or the other "fact" post has any facts. So both of you are either speaking without knowledge or out of your posterior. Either way, it stinks.Have a nice day.

City manager, city attorney, advising counsel, municipal judge........thank you Mr Happy for representing the ignorant rednecks of Bowie.

In this day and age a termination like this would only take place if there was no doubt of his guilt. He did something to violate the oath he took to protect and serve therefore, he's gone. End of story. The Bowie gossip train needs to move on down the line and start talking about something else that isn't their business. Wow, what a town!

If the sudden and secretive termination of the Chief of Police is not our business, then what is?

For the love of God please relieve Pelton of his duties. He is the rudest cop in Bowie and whether he is on duty or not he acts like he is so much better than people and treats them like crap. I have not met one person in this town that has anything nice to say about him. Run him off to some other town unlucky enough to have him.
